My cousin has a 6in lift on a 06 3500 dodge. I can get the measurements for the springs or I can forward you his ph#. He lives in the Ponoka area. My memory was abit blurry at the time, but I think that his truck has a procomp suspension lift kit in it. I was suprised it had a drop brace for the track bar. The sway bar end links are longer than my kore, but he doesn't have drop blocks. Nice truck, quad cab leather interior. Makes me almost want a 3rd gen.

I'll see about getting him to come out to the AFI outting.

i was thinking of doing a 4" lift down the road. right now i have leveling springs, to bring the front up another two inches i would just add leveling pucks, then get longer threaded rod for the end links (i have lazarlinks)

for the rear, i would probably have some springs made by these guys

i haven't thought about the steering components or trackbar yet though . . .

just a couple ideas for you . . .

I wimped out and just got a leveling kit. I still pull a RV filled with lots of stuff. I can only fit 35in tires on my truck. I run 285/R16/75 with no rubbing.

I just watched a few video on the death wobble. I thought that my truck was bad. Wow, those tires just wiggle like crazy. I might have to get some duct tape and tape a cheap video camera under the truck.
